System Prompt

Overview

System Prompt is a free, open-source node-based AI workflow builder that solves the problem of repetitive AI interactions. Instead of typing the same instructions repeatedly in chat windows, users can create reusable workflows for common AI tasks.

The Problem

Many people find themselves frequently typing the same instructions into AI chat windows — like “proofread this,” “summarize that,” or “translate this” — which wastes valuable time. System Prompt eliminates this repetition by allowing users to create reusable workflows for their common AI tasks.

Use Cases

Email Management

Create email response templates with specific tone and style. Just change the input email to get consistent professional responses.

Content Creation

Design once, deploy everywhere. Create social media posts for Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram from a single input while maintaining brand voice.

Data Processing

Build multi-step analysis workflows that chain data cleaning, analysis, and reporting operations.

Technical Stack

Built with modern web technologies including React, Next.js, TypeScript, and React Flow for the node-based interface. The application runs entirely client-side, ensuring user data privacy.

Why I Built This

The project originated from personal frustration with repetitive AI interactions. I was constantly opening new chat windows, writing the same instructions repeatedly, and pasting text. This cycle was a significant productivity drain.

What started as a simple tool for reusable prompts evolved into a comprehensive node-based workflow builder, inspired by tools like tldraw’s computer but focused on fine-grained control and production-ready AI workflows.

Impact

System Prompt has gained traction in the productivity and AI communities, with 5 stars on GitHub and growing adoption among users who want to streamline their AI workflows without compromising on privacy or control.
